Notes on these figures
- 2021: break in the time series (publisher flag); compare years before and after 2021 with care.
- Eurostat's current business statistics start in 2021; earlier years are on a different basis and aren't shown.
- No official 2025 turnover growth is published for this industry or its wider industry in France.
- UK figures are ONS 'total turnover'; other countries show Eurostat 'net turnover'. The measures are close but not identical, so compare with care.
